UA offers to assist sophomore By ALISSA KAYE Daily Pennsytvanian Stall Writer
Who you gonna call? . . the UA. Despite students' frequent com-
plaints of an inefficient student gov- ernment, the Undergraduate As- sembly proved itself effective to at least one student this semester.
College sophomore Lawrence Zuckerman is a wheelchair user who called on the UA for help be- cause the University did not meet his special needs when he got to school this year.
Zuckerman, who said he was frus- trated waiting for the University to address his needs, went to the UA as a last resort.
A couple days later, the Univer- sity made major modifications to his room, Zuckerman said.
But he said that all of the changes necessary for his performance at the University still have not been made.
</7 thought] the UA could be a resource to help solve the prob- lem. The UA was very responsive to my needs?
Lawrence Zuckerman College sophomore
"U thought] the UA could be a re- source to help solve the problem," Zuckerman said. "The UA was very responsive to my needs."
Zuckerman said he needs a specially-equipped bedroom and higher writing tables in his class- rooms to accomodate his wheel- chair. The modifications were not completed when he arrived at the University to move in last month, he said yesterday.
Over the summer, the University Office of Facilities Planning modi- fied one bedroom of a two-bedroom apartment on the third floor of High Fuse North, said Alice Nagle, coordi- nator of the program for people with disabilities in the Office of Affirma- tive Action.
A new ramp was also constructed leading into High Rise North, Nagle said.
As part of the room renovation, the room door was automated, and a high desk was permanently in- stalled to a wall.
However, Nagle continued, the room the University situated was not large enough to accommodate Zuckerman's needs.
Zuckerman switched bedrooms with his roommate, but then the modifications had to be switched to his new room as well, she said.
Before contacting the UA Zuck- erman had also requested, and not received, an intercom system to connect his room with the lobby desk for use in case he needs assis- tance during the night, Zuckerman said
He was forced to wait weeks and to involve the UA before this and the other changes were installed, he said.
"I knew that the UA knew the peo- ple who had to (make the changes Zuckerman needed]," said Amanda Machiela, the UA representative whom Zuckerman approached ab- out two weeks ago. "[The Univer- sity] was definitely cheating him of his rights."
Machiela talked to UA Chairper- son Jeffrey Lichtman, who then contacted the Office of Affirmative Action.
"[There was] a lack of commit- ment by the University and an op-

City workers walk off j ob By JOSHUA GOLDWERT. MARGARET KANE and DWAYNE SYE Daly Pennsytvanian Staff Writers
Nearly 15,000 Philadelphia city workers walked off the job early this morning as a midnight deadline passed with negotiations between two unions and the city still deadlocked.
James Sutton, president of the 12,000 member blue-collar District Council 33. said early this morning that there was a breakdown in nego- uations over job security. Contract talks went on throughout the night at the Holiday Inn at 16th and Wal- nut streets.
"We will be in a lockout posiuon," a visibly angry Sutton said. "We will continue to negotiatiate Job sec- urity is the biggest problem."
District Council 47 President Tho- mas Cronin attributed the problem to "the mayor's intransigence" on the job security issue.
"The unions bent over backwards but the city has stripped every
shred of dignity [from the unions]," Cronin said
Dwight Kirk, spokesman for Dis- trict Council 33. said talks will con- tinue, although "the workers have instructions to report to their work stations tomorrow and get on the picket line.
•[The workers] are in a somber state. It's a very serious action to be walking the picket line." Kirk said. "The administration is not inter- ested in protecting the rights of the city's employees."
Around 500 members from both unions passed out leaflets around Veteran's stadium last night before the Philadelphia Eagles took on the Dallas Cowboys in a nationally tele- vised game.
"We're just trying to get attention any way we can We're trying to get the support of the people." Surveyor Joe Powell said
However, most fans ignored the demonstrators

Hundreds attend festival on Native American culture By STEPHANIE PENA-SY Daily Pennsytvanian Staff Wnter
Hundreds of area residents at- tended the third annual Cultural Celebration of Native Americans Saturday at the University Museum.
Representatives from numer- ous tribes travelled from around the country to show how their ancestors lived in the "old days" with arts and crafts displays, video presentations, dances, storytelling sessions and films.
Louella Johnson, a Crow Indian from Montana, demonstrated tri- bal lullabies during the event.
"[If others] learn more about us and what we're about, we'll reach
a greater understanding and we can get along better," Johnson said.
The diverse representation of tribal art included the intricate beadwork of the Chippewa. tin porcupine quill work of the Crow Indians and the hand woven rugs of the Navajo
Museum visitors were given the opportunity to see the creation of the art and to purchase several pieces
The artwork was important in another sense, however, as it showed the living spirit of the Indians.
"I think the Indians are still alive," said Yoruba, an artist with
Peace Tools. "Their art of li\mg is still alive."
Some of the people who at- tended said they were surprised that so many people attended the exhibit.
"I've livefl in Pennsylvania tor 14 years," said Karen Walsh, an area resident, it's only been in the last couple of years that I've seen any interest at all in Native American culture."
There was some speculation that the increased awareness could stem from the publicity sur- rounding the 500th anniversary of Columbus' discovery of the New

By JORDANA HORN Daily Pennsytvanian Staff Writer
A 47-year-old University staff member filed an age discnminaUon suit against the University last week, prompting the Univers accuse him, in return, of sexual dis- crimination against his employees.
William Volz, former associate di- rector of technical support services at the University, demands in his suit to be reinstated because he was replaced by "•younger, less-qualified employees under 40 years of age."
The suit states that the Universitv
harassed Volz in order to force him to resign, and then fired him on July 27, 1991 "upon a pretextual ground of inept job performance."
In addition, the complaint de- mands that the University "make [Volz] whole, by appropriate back- pay awards, prejudgment interest, fringe benefits and otherwise." and says that if the University cannot give him back his job, the plaintiff should be awarded a salary, fringe benefits and other compensations

Reading program misses expectations By ILANA KLEIN Daaty Pennsytvanian Staff Wnter
Despite the Univeristy admi- nistration's predictions that the sec- ond annual Freshman Reading Program would be successful, re- cent feedback from participants and coordinators indicate the program did not meet expectations.
Following last year's successful Bacchae project entering freshmen were asked to read The Narrative ot the Life of Frederick Douglass and to attend New Student Orientation Week discussion sessions.
During last year's program over 80 percent of students surveyed by the University reported that they read that year's recommended work. The Bacchae
And although the University has not released any official statistics indicating how many students read the narrative, it appears from sev
eral reports that few students at- tended the discussion sessions and of those who did few had read the work.
2300 freshmen were expected to attend the program.
College officials who coordinated the program and faculty members who volunteered hours over the summer to plan their discussion groups said last week that they are upset with the student's poor parti- cipation in the program.
Many freshmen said this week that they did not read the book and did not attend their sessions.
College freshman Caroline Tiger said that 8 people — less than half — attended her session.
"I read it because I thought it was required" she said "A lot of my

Pi Phi takes 91 women as pledges By THOMAS HUANG Deity Pennsytvanian Staff Wnter
The Pi Beta Phi sorority ended their colonizing rush last Saturday marking the opening of the University's newest Greek chapter.
A total of 91 women accepted bids to be- come members of the sorority's first pledge class at the University.
The pledges are mostlv sophomores
and juniors but there are also about ten seniors, according to Pi Phi Resident Con- sultant Ann Rossi.
Luann Carter, director of Pi Phi hous- ing corporations, said she was pleased with the organization's first pledges
"We're excited about the pledge class." she said. "The charter class is super."
In addition to conducting a colonizing rush, a new Greek organization must also
find a suitable house, according to Grand Vice President of Membership Carolyn Lesh
"We know that to be seen on this cam- pus we need housing so it's certainly a top priority," she said.
Carter said that the sorority has already started looking into housing but has also

Reporters speak on campaign By CARA TANAMACHI Dally Pennsytvanian Staff Writer
Perot hasn't got a chance, according to media representatives at last night's open forum, "The Inside Scoop."
A panel, including Morton Dean of ABC News, Don Baer of U.S. News and World Report, Steve Holmes of The New York Times, Bill Turque of Newsweek and Bob Metzenheimer of USA Today, answered questions about the upcoming presidential election and the role of the media. Frank Luntz. adjuct assistant American civiliza- tion professor, moderated the panel.
The panel agreed that independent pres- idential candidate Ross Perot would prob- ably win fewer than ten percent of the elec- toral vote. Turque warned however, that
Perot may have an effect on the election. "1 don't think anyone knows for sure what
his impact on this election will be," Turque said last night. "I don't think he is com pletely irrelevant. But when it's all said and done, I don't think he'll even be a spoiler."
Luntz asked the panel about Perot's rela- tionship with the media and was answered with a round of laughs.
"My relationship with Perot started out bad and got worse," Holmes said "People say they have a love/hate relationship with the press. Well, with Perot IVe only seen the hate."
The panel spent significantly less time discussing Clinton and Bush and turned

Workers walk off job; negotiations fail STRIKE, from page 1
Powell and other union members wore signs reading, "Sack Fast Ed- die" and similar slogans referring to Rendell.
At a press conference early last night, Rendell asked the city for pa- tience and cooperation.
"This strike will not be painless," Rendell said. "There will be incon- venience, there will be problems, there will be threats of violence.
"Even the possibility of real vio- lence has been raised by some of the union membership," he added.
The unions have been without a contract since July 1. Two weeks ago the mayor implemented what he called his "last, best contracted offer." Under the city charter the mayor may implement a contract when negotiations have failed.
The four-year contract contains no wage increases for the first two years, and a five percent increase
over the last two years. It also calls for the unions to give back eight of 20 paid sick days, as well as four of 14 municipal holidays.
Starting November 1, workers will be covered under one of the city's three Health Maintenance Organi- zations or Blue Cross/Blue Shield.
During the last strike involving city workers, in 1986, white-collar workers struck for two weeks and blue-collar workers stayed out of work for three weeks
Employee sues U. for age discrimination LAWSUIT, from page 1 until he reaches the age of 70.
The University's response to the complaint stated that Volz was dis- missed after a four-month proba- tionary period in which Volz himself, according to the complaint, "[gave] proportionately less work to ... an African-American female who worked for him."
It also states he "acted in a bi-
zarre manner by standing around [female employees'] desks without talking."
The response states that during Volz's first four months on the job he failed to perform many of his job duties, including submitting status reports and reviews. It says that "it was clear that plaintiff and the job he was hired to do were not a good
match." Volz's suit, however, states that
"all times the plaintiffs job perfor- mance has been at least satisfactory."
Volz's lawyer Daniel Weisman could not be reached for comment yesterday and University Associate General Counsel Neil Hamburg re- fused to comment.

While Tiger said she was glad she read the narrative which she de- scribed as easy-reading, other stu- dents were not so positive.
Another College freshman, who spoke on the condition of anonym- ity, said that many of her friends read the book because they thought they were required to. She said freshmen are intimidated by the College.
"[I didn't read it since] I don't like
to read and it wasn't mandatory," she said.
College freshman Katie Zivkovic, said that she meant to read the nar- rative but could not find the time. She said she would have read it if it had been mandatory.
I think it would have been worse if it was mandatory just because if you don't read it because you're will- ing to .. . you really don't care ab- out it," she added.

Native American culture FESTIVAL, from page 1 World.
Many events were designed specifically for children who could learn firsthand about Native American artwork. There were workshops that taught sand paint- ing, making masks and Iroquois "talking sticks."
"We're delighted by the turn- out," said Pam Kosty, University Museum spokesperson. "It's great for us to see a lot of people since it's rare for us to be able to bring Native Americans from all around the country and from so far away."
The visiting Indians strove for an authentic rather than a carnival atmosphere.
"We're pleased with the high quality of the presentations we were able to offer," Kosty added. "We'd like to invite Penn students to find out about the additional world culture days and the film se- ries, exhibitions and lectures com- ing later on In the year."
The event was co-sponsored by the American Indian College Fund, an organization that raises awareness and funds for the 26 American Indian tribal colleges around the U.S.

The Second Degree A biweekly look at graduate student life and education
the fall &Lrise
of two graduate programs
Once almost history, the American Civilization and Classical Archaeology graduate groups stage a comeback.
By HEIDI GLEIT Daily Pennsylvania!! Stall Writer
A, . lthough Rome has fallen and. American civilization is said to be on the decline, both are being revived at the University.
The American Civilization and the Art and Archaeology of the Mediter- ranean graduate groups are accept- ing applications for next fall - after closing their admissions for one and three years, respectively.
Although Art and Archaeology of the Mediterranean is technically a new graduate group, it united Classical Archaeology, whose admissions doors were closed, and professors in relat- ed disciplines, according to AAM chairperson Lothar Haselberger.
The American Civilization graduate group will also draw professors from other departments to increase its interdisciplinary nature.
The now defunct Classical Archae- ology group focused on ancient Rome
and Greece, while the new graduate group will examine all of the lands bordering the Mediterranean Sea during the Bronze Age through the first millennium AD.
Haselberger said the restructur- ing will put Greek and Roman archi- tecture in their wider and histori- cally correct context."
The change was prompted by sev- eral factors, according to History of Art professor Cecil Striker.
Many departments had archaeol- ogists and other related expert faculty members in their discipline, but they were dispersed throughout the Uni- versity According to Striker, the new restructuring will unify the profes- sors allowing them to contribute to a widened classical archaeology depart- ment
The changes were also prompted by a shrinking faculty pool in the classi- cal archaeology graduate group And the pools depletion forced the depart- ment to close admissions, according to Striker
The Classical Archaeology pro- gram was "focused so narrow that it
ed from its isolation." Hasel- berger said.
The University, which is interna- tionally recognized for its strength in the field, did not want the program to "die." according to Haselberger. Instead the new program utilizes the University a resources.
developed a critical mass here," Striker said. "(So we] reorga- nized in a more coherent fashion [that met] the great strength of the Uni- versity
The expanded graduate group has its administrative base in the Art His- tory Department and is made up of 14 faculty members from the Anthro- pology. Art History, Classical Studies and Asian and Middle Eastern Stud- ies departments, according to Hasel- berger. The new graduate group will also use the University Museum.
Donations by University alumnus Charles Williams also helped strength- en the department Williams, who
directs excavations in Corinth, fund- ed three fellowships which are tai- lored for the new group, as well as an endowed chairperson of Roman archi- tecture which Haselberger currently occupies.
Although the curriculum has not yet been finalized. Haselberger said it will be "demanding " Knowledge of one ancient language and one for- eign Romance language as well as field experience in archaeology are prerequisites for admission into the group Haselberger said the group will probably admit only three stu- dents a year. It will grant MA degrees. but it is designed mainly for people pursuing a Ph.D.. Haselberger added
Dwindling faculty was also one of the causes for change in the Ameri- can Civilization graduate group, according to chairperson Peter Conn
"It's faculty had gotten somewhat smaller and there was a feeling that the changing size of faculty gave the opportunity to reconsider what would be best." Conn said.

The changes were initiated by a committee that School of Arts and Sciences Dean Rosemary S appointed last September.
The Dean's office prohibited admis- sions of new students to American civilization" for a year so that the committee could complete its work, he added.
(din .-aid that the study was not done in response to any problems.
"I don't think there was any sens. of a crisis, all departments undergo periodic reviews," Conn said.
The group was expanded to include professors from a variety of depart- ments.
"(The new graduate group! e of about 20 people Faculty are drawn from such departments as English, History History ot Art, Folklore, Edu- cation. History and Sociology of- ence and Sociology." Conn added
Professors praised the new inter- disciplinary nature of the department.
It expanded beyond American Civ- ilization to make a multi-departmen- tal program and to get Involved peo- ple interested in American history and culture." said H&SS protest Robert Kohler. a member oi the Exec- utive Committee that is designing the new program.
Under the new curriculum, stu- dents will be able to take courses in topics ranging from the American- oriented H4SS courses to American
literature. "I think its really beneficial for
someone who is interested in Amer- ican Literature to be familiar with American History Kohler said.
The Executive Commit' working on the curriculum changes Previously students took four cours- es two in theory and methods and two introductory courses in American Civilization
The theory and methods courses, which "were designed to give [the students) some basic methods in research theory." will not be required next fall, said American Civilization chairperson Murray Murphey.

Judge, U. alumna speaks on Catholic views of death penalty
FABRIZIO RIGOUT'DP Staff Photographer
Judge Lisa Richette speaks about capital punishment at the Newman Center last week.
By JEREMY KAHN Daily Ponnsylvanlan Stall Writer
Opposing capital punishment as "an ever-spreading oil slick on the fabric of justice," University alumna and Court of Common Picas Judge Lisa Richette kicked off the New- man Center's centennial celebra- tion lecture series with a speech at the Center last week.
During her 45-minute speech, Ri- chette gave the approximately 35 people attending the luncheon a his- torical overview on the debate over capital punishment and Catholic op- position to the death penalty.
She drew parallels between the contemporary debate over the issue in the United States and the suc- cessful fight to abolish the death penalty in England in the 19th cen- tury, with particular emphasis on the writings of Catholic scholar Car- dinal John Newman.
At times, Richette graphically de- scribed various means of carrying out the death penalty.
"The electric chair has been in use for 100 years, and it never fails to produce a hideous death," she said.
Richette contested the argument that it is cheaper to kill capital offen- ders than to keep them in prison by offering stastistics reported in The Miami Herald stating that each prisoner Florida executed cost the state $3.2 million.
"There are 2,588 prisoners on death row in this country," Richette
said. "Given the current system of appeals, it could take until the year 2030 to execute all of them."
The justice system is not infalli- ble, she added, calling the death penalty "judicial roulette."
"The law cannot resurrect peo- ple," she said.
Richette, who often visits capital offenders serving life sentences, said that people often reform them- selves in prison.
"In prison at least there is the possibility of hope, of resurrection, of redemption," she said. "Ten years after the imposition of a sen- tence, most people have usually changed. They are not the same person who committed the crime."
Richette said she is dismayed by what she referred to as "the moral patchwork" which exists within the Catholic Church, referring to Catholics who favor the death pen- alty but oppose abortion rights.
In her mind, she said, the issues are one and the same: "A life is a life. It can't be categorized in lega- listic or moralistic terms."
Richette criticized the lack of leadership against the death pen- alty on the parish level in the United States and attacked what she re- ferred to as statements of "appease- ment to pro-death Catholics" in the U.S. Bishops 1980 position against capital punishment.
Richette also blasted the press for what she said were attacks on com- passionate judges, saying the press
"builds up this hatred of anyone who behaves like a Christian."
Most of those in attendance said that they agreed with Richette and that they were very pleased with her speech.
"I thought she spoke very well," said Jim Stasheff, a visiting mathe matics proffesor from the Univer sity of North Carlonia. "She addressed a debate with which America and the Church must deal."
Mary Beth Kelly, the Newman Center's education chairperson, said she was also pleased with the luncheon.
"We're entirely pleased with the turnout," Kelly said. "She's a tre mendous speaker. It was an honor to have her at our first lecture in this centennial series."
After the speech and a brief ques tion and answer session, Richette said she thought the audience was responsive.
"It was a wonderfully responsive audience with a wonderful set of questions," Richette said. "This is a difficult passage and to present it in spiritual terms isn't easy."
Richette graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University and is a graduate of Yale Law School. She- has received numerous awards for public and community service, ap- pears regularly on "Nightline" and "Good Morning America," and has published a book titled The Thrown way Children
U. law lecturer Warren studies why people file for bankruptcy By CHARLES ORNSTEIN Daily Pennsytvanian Staff Writer
While many University entrepre- neurs are only interested in making money, one law school professor is trying to understand why people lose money and file for bankruptcy.
Elizabeth Warren, a lecturer at the University's Law School since 1987, has conducted three national studies on the causes and consequ- ences of bankruptcy in the past decade.
Warren's studies have gained na- tional prominence. She has spoken before Congress, appeared on the Today Show, ABC's World News To- night and CNN, and received the
prestigious Silver Gavel Award for a book she co-authored.
Last week Warren appeared on 60 Minutes, in a piece which fea- tured results from a recent study that examined national causes of family bankruptcy.
Warren began her studies on bankruptcy in 1981 with University of Texas Sociologist Teresa Sullivan and University of Texas law profes- sor Jay Westbrook. She works with the Texas professors on The Con- sumer Bankruptcy Project which is funded by the National Science Foundation and the National Con- ference of Bankruptcy Judges.
"Our first hypothesis [in 19811
BE THE TYPE TO SAVE A LIFE GIVE BLOOD.
■^P American Red Cross
was that the decision to file for bankruptcy . . . was not so much driven by economic rationale, as many economists believed, as it was driven by other sociological and de mographic factors," Warren said.
' We can't innoculate people against bank- ruptcy. If we could, I'd work on the vaccine?
Elizabeth Warren Law School Lecturer
"We were correct in our assumption."
The first study examined the files of 1550 families who declared bank- ruptcy in 10 judicial districts, includ- ing the three in Pennsylvania.
The second study, whose results are being released now, examined
2550 families who declared bank- ruptcy in 16 judicial districts.
"We had the debtors fill out ques- tionnaires so we could get a better analysis on why they filed for bank- ruptcy," Warren said. "We tabulated demographic information, such as age, education, race, ethnicity and marital status."
In the second study, question- naires revealed that one-half of all families who file for bankruptcy list medical debt as a major reason for filing.
"The financial consequences of serious medical problems have lar- ger effects on middle-class America than anyone initially thought," said Warren.
According to Warren, the largest medical expenses result from ba- bies born with serious medical dis- orders, strokes or heart attacks among the elderly and AIDS.
"The debt is overwhelming," War- ren said. "This is a reallv sad story."
What started out for Warren as a single question has now snowballed.
"We're no longer driven by a single hypothesis," she said. "There are about 150 different issues we are looking into."
Among these issues is why baby boomers are declaring bankruptcy more than any other age group. She is also studying the link between bankruptcy and age, race and education.
Warren said she hopes the results will have a positive effect on how the country deals with bankruptcy.
"There is too much debt relative to income and there is no cushion," she said. "We have to change con- sumer information about debt . . . people need more information."
"We can't innoculate people against bankruptcy," she said. "If we could, I'd work on the vaccine."
Linda Zimmermann, a 1992 Law School graduate, worked with War-
ren on her most recent study and praised her research and teaching skills.
"She was the best professor I ever had in my whole scholastic career,-' Zimmermann said. "It is rare to find someone not only premier in her field, but also a good teacher."
Warren was voted best professor by her graduating class, according to Zimmermann.
"She won it more than once while I was a student at the school," she said. "She made a big difference in my, and so many others' legal education."
Co-researcher Sullivan said that all of their surveys are vital in exa mining America's sociologic and economic livelihood.
"It is a lens for examining Ameri can society," Sullivan said.
Warren is currently spending two semesters at Harvard Law School, but will return to the University in the Fall of 1993.

Students watch Clinton in satellite hook-up By JEREMKY KAHN Daily Pennsylvanian Staff Writer
Rarely during a presidential elec- tion do voters get a chance to see a candidate speak in a casual forum, joking with a host, and giving in- depth answers to questions posed not by reporters, but by voters themselves.
But this is precisely the opportun ity that students got as they watched Democratic Presidential candidate Bill Clinton and running mate Al Gore address the concerns of college students across the na- tion via satellite hookup at the Nurs- ing Education Building Auditorium last week.
Approximately 100 University stu- dents and guests of College Demo- crats and Vote For A Change watched the telecast, which origi- nated at the University of Wiscon- sin, Madison, where Clinton and Gore were appearing on a special "Rock the Vote" segment of the weekly radio call-in show ••Rockline."
The casual atmosphere of the broadcast was set from the very beginning.
"I always knew Al would desert at some point in this campaign,"
Clinton joked with "Rockline" host Bob Colberg as he entered the stu- dio and failed to see Gore enter be- hind him.
During the telecast Clinton and Gore answered questions on a wide array of topics posed by both Col- berg and callers from college cam-
puses across the country. Comparing the efforts made by
young people in the sweeping demo- cratic changes in Eastern Europe to the need for youthful leadership in this country, Clinton and Gore urged young Americans to register to vote.
"I think it's very important that those who have the greatest stake in the future of this country — the young people — register to vote," Clinton said.
Gore criticized the Bush cam- paign for what he said were efforts to keep young people from voting.
Gore also accused the Bush admi- nistration of demonstrating a lack of leadership on the issues of AIDS and the environment, and said that young people's support was needed to change the situation.
"One of my goals in this election is to dramatically increase the num- ber of people under the age of 25 voting," Clinton added.
Both Gore and Clinton said they were eager to debate their Republi- can rivals and criticized Bush for re- fusing Clinton's proposed debate format.
"I wanted to get to [the debates) out of the realm of the political," Clinton said. "But George Bush said he wouldn't do it that way."
Some of those watching ap- plauded when Clinton said he was not worried about the outcome of any possible debates.
"[The Republicans'! ideas have
failed and no debate can change that," he said.
During the program, Colberg ex- tended an open invitation to Presi- dent Bush and Vice President Quayle to also appear on his show and answer students' questions.
Many of the questions which were phoned into the program concerned
'We are fully commit- ted to having women be full partners in ev- ery segment oi'soci- ety.9

date
the cost of higher education. Clinton and Gore explained their
proposed National Service Trust Fund, whereby loans would be granted regardless of financial need and would be paid back as either a percentage out of one's post- graduation earnings or through two years of public service which could be completed before entering col- lege or after graduation.
The candidates added that the loans would apply to graduate de grees as well as undergradua' dies and stressed the need to create specialized public service programs
such as a National Health Service Corps composed of both doctors and nurses.
Both candidates criticized the Re- publicans for their record on wo- men's rights and called for an end to the so-called "glass-ceiling," which refers to barriers against women advancing in the workplace.
"We are fully committed to having women be full partners in every seg- ment of society," Clinton said.
Clinton and Gore said it was too early to tell what effect Ross Perot's re-entry into the race would have on the election, but Gore criticized Perot's tax plan which he said would hurt the middle class.
The candidates also answered questions on gun control, race rela- tions, military spending, environ- mental policy, the homeless situa- tion and AIDS research.
The audience in the Nursing Edu- cation Building auditorium de- creased in size significantly as the telecast continued past an hour Those who remained said they were impressed by what they had heard.
"I've gotten more out of this [tele- cast) tonight than any of the other speeches of his I've seen," said Sheryl George-Macalpine, 27th Ward Democratic leader.
Students also said they liked the format of the program.
"I think it's great for them to ad- dress students and go after young votes," Wharton freshman Amar Lalvani said. "I don't see any of the other candidates doing it."

Don't Pass Go To the Editor,
Not easily shocked, I was both shocked and amazed at the blatantly ig- norant suggestions prof- fered by Nathaniel Cade in his column.
To suggest new and in- novative ways of skirting the very laws that hold this country together, Cade has done nothing but bring this school and nation one step closer to a total moral bankruptcy.
In addition, Cade's less- than-complementary com- ments about the LCE serve only to divide this school and country fur- ther. By belittling a job and person that serve to help keep the country whole, | Cade has spit in the face of not only his school, but also of the community and nation at large.
How much longer must we face the mutterings of pseudo-revolutionaries such as Cade? I say it's time to crack down and crack down hard on under- age drinking. And I think the first person the LCE should take in should be Cade.
Given a little time alone in a cell should give Cade time to consider the far- reaching consequences of his suggestions.
DAVID FIORINO Wharton 94
Aretha Speaks To the Editor:
I am writing in response to David Chun's column, "Basic Instincts: The Key to Love in the 1990s?" (DP 9/24/92).
As a person who de- nounces stereotypes, sex- ism and smut, I was ex- tremely offended by Chun's insensitivity to ward a major problem found on college campuses and worldwide — rape — as well as by his negative, stereotypical views of both men and women.
In light of the recent hearings of both William Kennedy Smith and Clarence Thomas, much controversy has encircled the definitions of "rape" and "sexual harassment." While there do exist some gray areas in the definition of sexual harassment, the meaning of rape is straightforward.
Rape is defined as forced sexual intercourse. It is not a sex crime, it is an act of violence. Whether a woman dresses provocatively or wears makeup is irrelevant — if she says "no," it means "no."
Date rape, the most common form of rape found on college campus- es, is more than just "one small miscalculation." Date rape surrounded by quotation marks in Chun's column as if it's merely a concept — has permanent-
ly scarring effects, both physically and emotional- ly, and can hardly be asso- ciated with "falling in love."
While "scamming" is widespread and popular among many men and women, it must be mutual. There is no justification for a violation of one's rights.. and one's body.
Regardless of how short a woman's skirt is, how she was raised and where a man takes her to dinner, there is no excuse for rape. And there is no ex- cuse for Chun's subjuga tion of such a horrible act.
As a female, Chun must believe I am a "feminist" who drinks Jack Daniels and comes from a lower- income family, right? Well — gasp'. — I am a femi- nist!
By definition, "femi nism" means "the advoca- cy of women's rights and sexual equality." Notice the "sexual equality" part. It applies to my attitude to- ward the "door opening ritual": whoever is in front — should open the door as a common courtesy to the other person. Although in the presence of a sexist. I'd probably slam it in his face.
Not only has Chun man- aged to perpetuate the negative stereotypes of women as lusty, manipula- tive seductresses and fern inists as lower class, "rough and tough" alco- holics, but he portrayed his own gender as foolish, unintellectual "animals."
Humans are not ani mals — we have the great- est reasoning capacity of_ all species. If wc compare ourselves to animals, then perhaps the Red deers of Scotland punishment which Chun pointed out would be justification for castration of convicted rapists.
A person can dress how ever he or she pleases. Dinner does not automati cally imply sex. A feminist is different fron an "ex- tremist." Not all men — or women, for that matter — are thoughtless, insensi tive animals who cannot — and don't need to, by my interpretation of Chun's column — control their "basic instincts."
"No" means "no." And love and sex are not syn- onymous.
Chun, and those who sympathize with his col- umn: the key to love in the 1990s is, as Aretha Franklin once said, "RESPECT."
HEATHER BERNER College '96
In the Mist To the Editor:
After reading David Chun's column, my "basic instinct" was to vomit. I can't remember the last time I encountered such a wealth of both ignorance and Neanderthalism in
and love both my parents. But my familiarity with "the family
unit" ended there. There was simply no time for visits to aunts, uncles and cousins. It was at events like this wedding when this reality of my childhood came to me.
The wedding was in Nanticoke. Nanti coke is the classic Pennsylvania coal town. The coal is gone and so is the town's industrial base. But the natural beauty of the town remains, as does the working spirit and faith of its residents.
At the top of each hill is a church. In this part of the country, almost all of the churches are ^mmmmjjjmmmmjjjjjjmjjjj^m Catholic. Nanti- coke, a small town by any definition, has five Catholic churches. The wedding was in one of them.
I grew up Catholic. Catholicism and the Jesuits at Boston College have helped de- velop who I am and what I believe. Human rights. Personal morality. For- giveness.
However, one of the tenets that the Church supposedly subscribes to has been continually ignored — equal rights. The Catholic Church is sexist. And the wedding reminded me just how much so.
I was prepared for the normal M in a Catholic wedding. The constant ref- erences to "man and wife." The reading from Genesis where Eve is created from Adam's rib. However, I was not ready for
Jhe most blatantly sexist piece of k ceremony I have ever seen.
The traditional vows read. Then, after the
light '.. ing of v>- candles, the n e w I y w i once again sumed a kneeling posi tinn in front of the priest's watchful yi! tailing eyes.
He handed them a book and the bride read the following:
"I will support my husband In his ca- reer and will step aside to guarantee his success. I promise to be a good mothei and. if blessed with children my self totally to them."
* My mo agape believe my ears.
uth was I couldn't
such a small amount of space.
At least Chun doesn't was te any time. By the fourth paragraph he has already completely trivial- ized the entire nightmare known as date rape by re- ferring to it as a "small miscalculation."
Here is a little analogy for Chun on his own terms: if small miscalculation equals date rape, then slight slip of the knife equals castration.
"Date" or "acquain- tance" rapes are every bit as heinous as those perpe trated by complete strangers. How dare he minimalize the harshness of rape by passing it off as nothing more than a "small miscalculation."
Now in case the begin- ning of the column was not enough to offend every human on the planet, Chun goes on to explain his warped idea of dating etiquette. Basically, Chun had the audacity to relate the amount of basic cour-
* Here is a little analogy for Chun on his own terms:

equals date rape, then slight slip of the knife equals
castration.'
tesy and respect each fe- male deserves with her socio-economic back- ground.
So, guess how he justi- fies these blatantly sexist and classist statements. He attributes them all as direct results of the femi nist movement.
Wait...I hear a noise... Gosh, I think it's the sound of Susan B. Anthony rolling over in her grave.
Then, unwilling to end this asinine piece, Chun goes on to vividly describe various mating practices in the animal kingdom which obviously fascinate him. Surprise, surprise.
I suppose the final straw is that this guy is a Psy- chology major of all things! Please, say it ain't so!
To my Penn brothers, please, talk to Chun. Show him the error of his thoughts and ways. It is sludge like him that gives the good guys a bad repu- tation.
To my Penn sisters, stay away from «-nun. I'm sure he is easy to spot. You'll know he is coming when you see the protrud- ing forehead and you hear the sound of his knuckles dragging across Locust Walk.

So with this in mind, there is but one question that springs to mind. What happens when the team is on the 18-yard line?
Maybe they flip a coin. •
Just a quick clarification. For any body still searching for some type of controversy surrounding the al- leged fourth timeout given to Penn during the Fordham game, let it be known there is no controversy to hash over.
The answer to the problem stemmed from the officials acciden tally charging Penn with a timeout that was actually called by the Rams Then when it came time for Penn to take its third timeout, it ap- peared as if they had none left.
• Injury update: Senior Dave Ver-
non, who injured his shoulder in the Fordham game, had his shoulder examined yesterday. The extent of the injury is unclear. Junior Andy Berlin, out with a twisted knee suf- fered in the team's win over Col- gate, is expected by Bagnoli to be back this weekend. Flannely and ju- nior tight end Ben Holman (knees) are questionable. DeLuca (broken ankle) is out.

Palestinians ask Red Cross to intervene JERUSALEM — Leaders of the Palestinian dele-
gation to the U.S.-backed peace talks appealed yes- terday to the International Committee of the Red Cross to intervene in a dispute over prison conditions.
The appeal came as a hunger strike by Palestinian prisoners charged with anti-Israeli offenses entered its ninth day.
The inmates reportedly have been taking only wa- ter and salt to highlight their demands for better food more exercise and an end to extended solitary con- finement. Palestinian leader Faisal Husseini said last week some 5,000 prisoners were involved.
The Israeli Prison Authority refuses to say how many prisoners are participating. It says strikes are under way at "more than five" facilities. Palestinians have said inmates are striking at most of the 13 Is- raeli prisons.
Prison Authority spokeswoman Shulamit Meiri on Monday refused to say how officials were trying to re- solve the impasse, saying only "in our own way."

FDA approves expanded use of drug WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administra-
tion yesterday approved expanded use of an experi- mental drug for AIDS patients who cannot take AZT or DDI, the two chief drugs used in treating the disease.
The drug, stavudine, also called d4T, inhibits prog- ress of the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS, the agency said in a statement.
The drug, made by Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., is be- ing tested to determine if it can extend life or delay the onset of AIDS. Early results from those clinical trials on 259 patients indicate at least a temporary beneficial effect of the drug, the FDA said.
The agency decided to allow expanded use of d4T after finding that the potential benefits outweigh the risks and the drug fills a health need.
AIDS patients who were ineligible for getting the drug before should have their doctors contact the manufacturer to ask about getting it now, the agency said.
Dead newsman's body may be exhumed WESTPORT, Conn. — The body of veteran CBS
newsman Harry Reasoner might be exhumed so offi- cials in Connecticut and Iowa can complete an inves- tigation of his death, Iowa's state medical examiner said yesterday.
Reasoner, a correspondent on CBS' "60 Minutes," died at age 68 in August 1991, two months after he hit his head during a fall at his Westport home. Before his death, he was treated for a blood clot in the head and pneumonia at Norwalk Hospital. He was buried at Humboldt, Iowa.
Wayne Carver, Connecticut's chief medical exa- miner, said last month he was asked to review Rea- soner*s medical records by Westport police, who re- ceived a request for an inquiry from Reasoner's family.
Iowa State Medical Examiner Dr. Thomas Bennett said Monday he and Carver were considering the case.
"If we feel there are questions to be answered that only the autopsy can answer, and the answers are im- portant, we may exhume the body," Bennett said.
Bennett said the decision will be made jointly within the next few weeks.

Police probe death in Erie County ERIE — An Erie County man whose body was
found behind a fence was either murdered or struck by a car, police said yesterday.
James Stanley died of "multiple blunt force trauma" to the upper part of his body. Deputy Cor- oner Richard Skonieczka said
Some roofers working on a building discovered Stanley's fully clothed body at about 9:30 a.m. Sunday, authorities said.
"We don't know whether it [his death] was from foul play or whether there was an accident," Capt. Dennis Tobin of Erie police said.
Skonieczka said a ruling on Stanley's death will not be made until the autopsy reports are completed by Takeshi Imajo. a forensic pathologist.

Plummeting stock prices pressure Fed WASHINGTON — A sharp drop in U.S. stock prices
yesterday underscored the economy's bleak pros- pects and added renewed pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, analysts said
Many economists forecast that further rate cuts could come at the end of a key meeting of Fed policy- makers today.
If the Fed does move, analysts said that a variety of consumer and business interest rates, already at levels not seen in more than two decades, will fall as well.
But they were not at all certain that a new round of rate cuts would have any more impact than 24 previ- ous reductions in curing what ails a sick economy.
Rate-cut speculation gained urgency yesterday af- ter the Dow Jones industrial average plunged by more than 100 points in early trading. It later steadied but was still down over 50 points at mid-afternoon.

In the Eye of the Artist Taxes are issue in closing days
MARC Bi.UMBERG DP Stall Photographer
College sophomore Kelly Kline sketches University scenery behind Houston Hall for a Design of the Environment class last week.
WASHINGTON — The 102nd Congress scratched and clawed toward adjournment yesterday, knee deep in disputes over taxes. energy and abortion.
Eyeing a final wrapup by noon to- day, lawmakers also faced a vote on overriding President Bush's veto of a popular bill regulating the price of cable television service.
"We expect to have a full day to- day," understated Senate Majority Leader George J. Mitchell, D- Maine.
"I would suggest that members bring their sleeping bags," House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt told his troops in outlining the sche- dule for the closing hours.
Adjournment would close one of the most contentious chapters in modern times, ending a Democratic-controlled Congress that often was deadlocked because of differences with a Republican president. Voter discontent, fed by the spectacle of a House whose members could not balance their own checkbooks, led to a near- record turnover.
Two days after announcing a ten- tative agreement on a catchall tax bill, negotiators from the House and the Senate were still bickering over relatively minor details. The bill would make tax-deductible Indivi- dual Retirement Accounts available to single workers making under $75,000 and to couples under
$100,000; offer incentives for job cre- ation in blighted areas and ladle out tax breaks to targeted groups.
The future of the bill remained in doubt because the tax breaks would be paid for with a potpourri of minor tax increases that would bring in $27 billion over five years. Bush has been apologizing for agreeing to a far larger tax increase in 1990 and recently vowed he would never sign another.
Despite congressional pleas for the president to say whether he would accept the new bill, Bush would go no farther than "I'm not sure." He volunteered that the bill has a lot of good along with the tax increases.
There were indications Republi- cans might try to talk the bill to death to spare the president a d sion. Rep. Bill Archer of Texas, se- nior Republican tax writer in the House, announced after a GOP can cus that he will vote against the bill and said there probably was as Re- publican consensus in opposition.
"I just don't see how he can sign it" because of its 40-plus tax in creases. Archer said.
Elsewhere in the Capitol: —The House worked on a com-
promise energy bill that calls for new efficiency standards for lights and motors; restructures the utili- ties industry; makes it easier to build nuclear power plants and promotes gasoline substitutes.
US Air ground crews walk off job; flights cut IMPERIAL — Ground crews for
USAir, the nation's sixth-largest airline, walked off the job yesterday in a dispute over job security, canceling flights for thousands of people.
Flight attendants voted to honor the picket lines, which sprouted at dawn at airports around the country, including USAir hubs in Charlotte, N.C., and Pitts- burgh, where 28 strikers were arrested. Airline pilots said they would continue to work.
USAir said three-quarters of its 2,600 daily departures were taking off and other carriers were accepting stranded passengers. But some travelers forced to find other ways home didn't have much sympathy for the strikers.
"Look at that. Canceled, canceled, canceled. Every 15 minutes it changes,"
said Philadelphia-bound Sherry Parisi, who was stuck in Charlotte with her sister-in-law, Janice Graf.
"I don't know how anybody could do this in this economy," said Graf. "It takes a lot of nerve."
The striking union, the International Association of Machinists, represents ab- out 8,300 employees, and many of them said the main issue was job security — not wages or benefits.
At the newly-opened Pittsburgh Inter- national Airport, 25 people were arrested yesterday afternoon for trespassing, and three for allegedly carrying brass knuckles.
The Association of Flight Attendants, which represents 9,000 USAir employees, said the leaders of its USAir group had voted to honor the strike But the USAir
unit of the Air Line Pilots Association said its members would fly.
USAir said its overseas flights — three departures daily to London, two to Frankfurt and one to Paris — were not af- fected, nor were the USAir Express and USAir Shuttle services.
At the Pittsburgh airport, passengers had more time than they expected to en- joy the mall-like atmosphere in the $800 million Midfield Terminal, which opened Thursday. The amenities range from fast-food restaurants and fern bars to up- scale stores selling books, cosmetics, jewelry, sunglasses and gifts.
Sandy Martin had to wait four hours for a flight to Tampa, Fla., after her morning flight was canceled. She had breakfast at a restaurant and browsed in a Christmas gift shop. "It makes the layover a lot ea-
sier," she said. Union and airline negotiators were un-
able to agree on a new contract after lengthy weekend talks that lasted into yesterday morning. National Mediation Board spokesman Lew Townsend said no other talks were scheduled.
USAir is asking all employees for wage, benefit and work rule concessions, so it can cut costs by about $400 million this year. Pilots agreed to salary concessions in June.
Chairman Seth Schofield accused the Machinists of being "unwilling to make the same contribution and sacrifices as other USAir employee groups during this difficult economic period."
If we were to sign the agreement, we'd be putting ourselves out of work," said Bill Emmons, a striker in Boston.
Justices reject challenges to redistricting
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court yesterday left intact reapportionment plans for Pennsylvania's con- gressional districts and the state General Assembly.
The court, without comment, rejected challenges that said the congressional plan was adopted too has- tily and the state legislative districts were unlawfully partisan.
The appeals by state Senate Republican Leader F. Joseph Loeper and others also raised Voting Rights Act concerns about both plans.
Pennsylvania lost two House seats — from 23 to 21 — as a result of the 1990 census. The state Supreme Court adopted a congressional redistricting plan in March af- ter state lawmakers failed to work out an agreement.
The state court followed a federal judge's recommen- dation to use a plan drawn up by Democratic state senators.
The process took just under two months. Republican senators led by Loeper argued the schedule was too limited and barred consideration of their final proposal.
Their appeal argued that the state Supreme Court did not properly consider the congressional plan's ef- fect on minority voters.
The new lines reduced the minority population in Philadelphia's 2nd congressional district from 81 per- cent to 62 percent — below the generally accepted guideline of 65 percent for a minority district, the ap- peal said.
The plan also raised the black population in the neighboring 1st district, and lowered it in Pittsburgh's 14th district, without considering whether the changes would give minorities a fair voice, the appeal said.

Candidates spar as end of campaign nears WASHINGTON — The presidential
race entered its final four weeks yester- day with three candidates — instead of two — leveling blame for the nation's weak economy, a fragility underscored by new turbulence in the stock market.
Democratic nominee Bill Clinton attri- buted the day's drop in the Dow Jones In dustrial Average — over 100 points at one point — to "uncertainty over President Bush's economic program."
He urged markets to "calm down," boasting that "help is on the way."
The White House shrugged off the stock plunge, which by close of trading had been
, largely erased "We're watching it. We don't think it calls for any action at this
point," said presidential spokesman Mar- lin Fitzwater.
Bush campaigned in Delaware after as- serting on a morning television interview show that Democrats in Congress had further endangered economic recovery by adding new taxes to a compromise tax bill.
Asked on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" if he would veto the bill, Bush replied: "I'm not sure."
Ross Perot was acting and sounding like a major contender, six days before all three will meet in St. Louis for the first of three presidential debates.
The independent challenger, whose fust national television ad, a 30-minute
spot, will air tonight, insisted he wasn't running to be a spoiler in the presidential race. "It was already spoiled," he said on NBC's "Today" show.
Lashing out at both Bush and Clinton, the Dallas executive accused the presi- dent of being out of touch and said Clin- ton's support for a free-trade agreement with Mexico showed the Arkansas gover- nor doesn't understand business.
"We're taking the best part of our worker tax base and putting it in jeo- pardy," Perot said of the trade pact, nego- tiated by the Bush administration and en-
_ dorsed by Clinton with some reservations ™ over the weekend.
Judge delays abortion case ruling
WASHINGTON — A federal judge said today he's postponing a deci- sion on whether the Bush admi- nistration acted legally in barring federally funded family planning clinics from advising women about abortion.
U.S. District Judge Charles Ri- chey said he would not rule in the case until a federal appeals court decides a similar case.
"In declining to act at this time, this court is not abdicating its judi- cial obligation, but merely abstain- ing temporarily," Richey wrote.
Richey last May ordered the gov- ernment to halt enforcement of its rule, which tells family planning clinics receiving federal money that only doctors can advise women on the option of abortion. That order was overturned by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
Richey ruled at the time that the government acted illegally in estab- lishing the rule because it failed to follow procedures that would have allowed for public comment. The ad- ministration argued that the rule was not really a change in federal regulations but was guidance in how to apply regulations already on the books.
The Supreme Court has already said that this rule does not violate constitutional protection of free speech.
Opponents of the administration's rule say it effectively cuts off all dis- cussion of abortion in the clinics be- cause most do not have doctors on staff. The case before Richey was brought by different groups but is based on the same legal questions as the case that is before the Court of Appeals.
The judge heard arguments in the case last Wednesday.
Last week the administration's rule survived a challenge on Capitol Hill, where the House sustained President Bush's ^eto of a bill that would have nullified the gag rule.
W. Tennis edged by B.U. before edging Harvard
Tuesday. October 6 . 1992 Hi. Ih.ih
By JEU WALKNTAS Daily Pennsylvanian Sports Writer
The Penn women's tennis team became the first Ivy League team to defeat Harvard in over two years by posting a dramatic 5-4 victory over the Crimson in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association's regional tour- nament on Sunday at Yale University.
The Quakers, unseeded in the eight team event that also included Princeton, Dartmouth, Syr;i Boston University, Brown and Yale, drew a tough BU squad in the first round.
Despite being overwhelming underdogs, Penn managed to take two singles matches before enter- inn the doubles play, the Quakers' strongest suit Sophomore No. 1 Barrie Bernstein led the team with a hard fought 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory against Heidi Steiber. BU's top gun
Although senior captain Monica Goldberg and junior Leanne Mos both dropped long three-setters, freshman Preety Sorathia knocked off the Terrier's No. 4 in straight
7-5.6-4. "Monica and Leanne both played
really great," Penn coach Cissie Le- ary said. "The BU girls just turned it up in the third set. They were too good. Preety and Barrie both played unbelievable matches to beat really tough players."
The bottom of BU's roster proved a little bit stronger than that of the Quakers, as Nos. 5 and 6 both lost in straight sets, but Penn was still alive going into the doubles competition.
Unfortunately, BU's No. 1 doubles team is clearly one of the best teams in the region, and it maintained that reputation by beating Bernstein and Sorathia in a tight 6-1, 7-5 decision. The second doubles team of Mos
and junior Sucjin Kim played excel- lent tennis to score a 7-5, 6-4 win, while the No. 3 team of Goldberg and freshman Beth Brady con- tinued their undefeated season with a 6-2, 7-6 victory.
Despite the close loss, Penn was pumped up to play a Harvard team that had dropped a 5-4 decision to Syracuse. The memories of last year's 5-4 loss at Harvard were still fresh in the minds of Penn's five re- turning singles players, and re- venge proved to be a great motivator.
Bernstein again displayed her re- lentless play in yet another come from behind victory. After dropping a loose first set, 6-2, she pulled her gamfl together to win crucial the second set, 7-5, and went on to bagel her demoralized opponent, 6-0, in the third
In similar fashion, Mos recovered from a slow start to capture her match 5-7, 6-2, 6-1, while Sorathia, who doesn't believe in these slow starts, dominated her opponent, 6-1, 6-4.
So, with the teams deadlocked at thiee, the match would again come down to the doubles competition Bernstein and Sorathia served and volleyed their way to a relatively easy 6-4, 6-1 win, but the No. 2 team of Mos and Kim suffered its first set- back of the year in three hard- played sets.
The entire match came down to the No. 3 team of Goldberg and Brady Despite jumping out to a quick 5-2 lead in the first set, the Quakers were forced into a first-set tiebreaker where they finally pre-
vailed. Neither team had an oppor tunity to take control of the second set until the 10th game, when Brady saved six set points against her serve in a game she simply de- scribed as "stressful."
Nonetheless, Brady showed the composure of a senior and managed to hold serve before she and Gold- berg broke their Harvard rivals and finished off the match — and the Crimson — 7-6, 7-5.
"It's been a while since anyone's legitimately beaten Harvard," Le- ary said, referring to an Ivy League executive decision that gave Brown the title over Harvard two years ago. "There is so much more parity between all these teams now. though. It seems like every match was 5-4.
"The girls believed they could win. They weren't intimidated at all. The whole team played absolutely unbelievable. Teams know that we are always going to come to play This team won't beat themselves That puts tremendous pressure on our opponents."
• Today, the Quakers will take on a
competent Lehigh squad at the Lott Courts (2 p.m.). In this far-from- crucial match, Penn will be playing without Mos, who has a conflicting class, and possibly without Sorathia as well, who is suffering from a wrist injury. Brady and the LeBow sisters — Jacqui and Philice — will be called upon to pick up the slack.
"After such a great and emotional weekend," Leary said, "Lehigh will be a test of our ability to remain fo- cused and solid out there."

M. Tennis gauges Ivy opposition
S*G fi>r>o
By NIK GUPTE Daily Pennsylvanian Sports Writer
The Penn men's tennis team re- turned home from the Princeton Fall Invitational last weekend with its thoughts focused further north toward Yale University, the site of this weekend's EC^AC Region One Tournament.
"[The Princeton tournament] was a good warmup for the conference championships next week," Penn coach Gene Miller said.
Although there were no team points awarded in the Princeton tournament, the Quakers were able
to preview fellow Ivy League foes Brown, Columbia and Princeton. This gave the coaching staff r chance to measure how the team will match up in league play next spring.
"Our performance at this tourna- ment showed us that we are right where we need to be," Miller said. "Columbia looks like the preseason favorite right now."
Penn stacked up well against rival Columbia in both singles and dou- bles. Sophomore Mark Schecter led the way with a huge singles win over the Lions' Mark Sigalove, who is
ranked in the Top 20 amateur poll, according to Miller. Schecter also teamed up with junior David Nathan to make it all the way to the semifinal round in the doubles draw.
"This is the first time [Schecter] has played really well since he has been here," Miller said. "He came out and played great."
Miller attributed this to the fact that Schecter has had to adjust to a style and atmosphere different from what he was used to back home in El Paso.
The second doubles team of so phomore Neil Aaronson and fresh- man Hans Helmers also showed Columbia something to look for- ward to during the Ivy League sea- son, posting a win in the doubles round.
Overall, Miller is pleased with the results from Princeton. He feels confident about his first doubles team of Schecter and Nathan, while Aaronson and Helmers have shown good chemistry and teamwork to make up the second. Other combi- nations will be used to find a solid third team.

On penalty corners she'd fall down in front of the goal and we kept hitting the ball right at her instead of lifting it. The ball couldn't go through her body.' — Penn field hockey team's senior co-captain Kris \ lift referring to the Harvard goa- lie.

Eagles destroy Dallas to stay unbeaten Lemieux becomes NHL's richest man; Mets apologize for season
Before last night's showdown at Veterans Stadium, Herschel Walker niftly dodged inquiries about his de- sire for revenge against the Dallas Cowboys for trading him.
Then he went out and niftly dodged the Cowboys, scoring touch- downs on runs of 9 and 16 yards and rushing for 86 yards on 19 carries as he and the Philadelphia defense combined to beat Dallas 31-7 in a battle of the NFC's last two unbeatens.
That defense, led by linebackers Seth Joyner, Byron Evans and Wil- liam Thomas, got four turnovers — three interceptions and a fumble re- covery that led to three touchdowns and denied the Cowboys another The Eagles broke away with three touchdowns in the final 20 minutes
It was just another chapter in the sad saga of Dallas quarterback Troy Aikman against the Eagles, who now lead the NFC East at 4-0, while the Cowboys fell to 3-1.
Aikman, sacked 11 times by the Eagles in Dallas last year and knocked out of a game here two years ago with a separated shoul- der, was flushed from the pocket by Reggie White on the first play of the game and forced to ground the ball, setting a pattern that continued throughout.
Two plays later, John Booty picked off a pass over the middle, re- turned it to the 14 and set up a 2 yard bootleg for a TD by Randall Cunningham four plays later
The Cowboys came back to tie it on a 7-yard pass from Aikman to Kelvin Martin and the Cowboys took a 10-7 lead on Roger Ruzek's 40-yard field goal with 1:34 left in the first quarter.
Then came perhaps the crucial turnover.
With Dallas at third-and-goal at the Eagles 2. Aikman rolled right, threw toward the end zone and the ball was deflected by Thomas into the hands of Wes Hopkins on the goal line.
Then, with it still 10-7 midway- through the third quarter, Aikman hit Alvin Harper for 42 yards to the Philadelphia 44. On the next play, Joyner hit Aikman's arm as he threw and Evans picked off the ball and took it back 12 yards to the Dal- las 45.
Eight plays later, Walker put it to the team that traded him to the Min- nesota Vikings three years ago for 12 players and draft choices, as he went 9 yards into the end zone to make it 17-7.
He got his second TD early in the fourth quarter after Evans knocked the ball loose from Daryl Johnston and Thomas came out of a scramble with the ball at the Philadelphia 48
Four plays later, with the ball at the 16, Walker broke left cut back and into the end zone, raising the ball above his head and simulating a spike, about as much emotion as he ever shows. Walker also caught three passes for 14 yards.
Hockey
PITTSBURGH - Mario Lemieux became the highest paid player in hockey yesterday, signing a seven year contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins worth a reported $42 million.
Announcement of the deal was made by the Penguins on the occa- sion of Lemieux's 27th birthday and on the eve of the NHL season opener tonight.
Lemieux's record-setting con- tract will pay him nearly twice what any other player in the NHL is mak- ing. Philadelphia's Eric Lindros. who will face the Penguins tonight in Pittsburgh, signed a six-year deal worth $21 million earlier this year.
Lemieux's contract replaces the final two years on his five-year, $12 million deal that had placed him fourth on the NHL salary scale. The money he'll earn during the course of the deal equals almost two-thirds of the $65 million Penguins owner Howard Baldwin paid for the franchise in 1991.
Baldwin said during the summer he wanted to sign Lemieux to a long-term deal that would bind him to the Penguins for the rest of his career and beyond

NEW YORK — The New York Mets figured after their second straight fifth-place finish and their first 90-loss season since 1983. they owed New York baseball fans an apology.
Yesterday, the team delivered it. using full-page advertisements in the New York Daily News, New York Post The New York Times and New York Newsday to do it.
"Our season wasn't exactly one to remember." the ad began "'We were just as disappointed as we know you were But what we won't soon forget is all of you who came to Shea, despite our many injuries, de- spite the economy, despite even the bad weather."
"They say when you're down and out, you find out who your true friends are. We were happy to dis- cover we still had true friends, by the millions.
"So thank you Mets Fans and thank you New York.
"Spring training is only four months away. We can hardly wait.
"Let's go Mets!" The ads were signed by players,
coaches, front office personnel, and by owners Fred Wilpon and Nelson Doubleday. Bullpen catcher John Stephenson signed twice.
The Mets would not say how much ads cost The last time New York fans received an apology from one of their teams was in 1981, after the Yankees lost the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers
MONTREAL — Felipe Alou. who guided the Montreal Expos to one of baseball's best turnarounds, was re- warded yesterday with a contract through the 1994 season
The Expos, who finished a sur- prising second to Pittsburgh in the NL East, said both sides will con- tinue working on a multiyear deal that would keep Alou in the organi- zation beyond his managerial days
Financial details were not di- vulged, but Alou remarked "I'm not a million-dollar man. I'm a lot lower than that. I just wanted security for my family."
General manager Dan Duquette said Alou may manage beyond the two years.
"With the multiyear contract, we want to ensure Felipe's stability in the organization." Duquette said, adding that rehiring Alou was the first order of business in "our goal to go from contender to champion."
It was Duquette who convinced a reluctant Alou to assume the mana- ger's job last May 22. replacing Tom Runnells. The Expos were 17-20 and floundering in fifth place
Runnells, who succeeded the po- pular Buck Rodgers almost a year earlier, had an uptight, almost mili- tary style of managing that left many players unresponsive to his leadership.
Under Alou, a 16-year employee in the Montreal organization follow- ing an outstanding playing career in the majors, the Expos flourished.
They ended the season with an 87-75 record, a 16-win improvement from last season when they finished in last place. Disregarding the strike-interrupted 1981 season, it was the Expos' best finish since 1980
Alou, the first native of the Dom- inican Republic to manage in the majors, admitted yesterday he had been reluctant to accept the job when it was offered last May. He had never managed in the majors but he was successful in Montreal's minor-league svstem. especially at Class A West Palm Beach in 1990, where the team went 92-40.

F. Hockey set to host PennSt By ADAM RUBIN Daily Pennsylvanian Sports Writer
How good is the Penn field hockey team?
This afternoon on Franklin Field at 3:30 p.m., we shall find out. The No. 18 Quakers take on the high- powered offense and stifling de- fense of the third-ranked team in the nation, Penn State.
The contest is a golden opportun- ity for Penn to gain national promi- nence and a significant jump in the rankings over night — literally, as the new rankings come out tomorrow.
But, the task will be arduous. The Nittany Lions have yielded but six goals in eight games this season while they have scored an astound- ing 22.
"They're just a complete team," Penn coach Anne Sage said. "I'm talking about fine-tuned hockey. A lot of the girls play year round. They're very capable. They're really a class team."
"It's a challenge for us, as it is ev- ery year," senior forward Karen Saah said. "To come up with a win would really be great — a boost to our confidence."
However, both teams enter the game coming off 'disappointments.' Penn (5-1-1) played last year's co- Ivy League champ, Harvard, to a scoreless tie in Cambridge, Mass., on Saturday, in a game which the Quakers hoped would establish their Ivy supremacy. The tie ended a five-game winning streak for Penn and perhaps curtailed some of the momentum the Quakers had accu- mulated entering this afternoon's game.
Meanwhile, the Nittany Lions (6-1-1) enter today's contest coming off their first loss of the season, a 2-1 decision Sunday to No. 2 Iowa. Penn State's only other blemish was a 0-0 tie at No. 4 Maryland on September 23.
It's no secret that the Quakers

will need to play flawlessly this af- ternoon in order to emerge victori- ous. In the process, Penn will need to find a way to stop the Nittany Lions' Christine McGinley. McGin- ley has 12 points (10 goals, 2 assists) in Penn State's eight games this season.
Last year, the Nittany Lions lam- basted the Quakers in University Park, 5-0, behind McGinley, who netted two goals. The last time the
Quakers defeated Penn State was 1989 in an NCAA quarterfinal matchup. 2-1. Only senior forward Karen Saah and then-senior back now-second-year assistant coach Donna Mulhern still remain with the Quakers from that game.
If Penn is to succeed in returning to its late-80s form, the Quakers must avoid playing as individuals. Saturday against the Crimson, Penn reverted back to the form that
saw it lose to Delaware on opening day — an individualized rather than team-oriented game. Without team- work today, Penn State will pick apart the Quakers.
"Penn State is in another league," Sage said. "I think what we have to do is accept the challenge of playing them — a top ranked team — and go out and play together Against Har-

Although the Penn field hockey team didn't lose to Harvard Satur- day, there was still disappointment lingering. The Quakers (1-0-1 Ivy League, 5-1-1 overall) survived a double overtime contest to tie the Crimson (0-1-1,1-3-1).
But Penn nearly lost with 22 sec- onds left in the second half when Harvard back Francie Walton lifted a ball off of a penalty corner past the Quaker goalie, sophomore Suzanne Pures. Penn senior co-captain Jen- nifer Oschell made the save with her hand, resulting in a Crimson penalty stroke. But Pures stopped Harvard's Amy Belisle's attempt, thereby securing her third shutout of the season.
Although neither team hit the back of the cage, there were oppor- tunities. Penn had 17 shots and 14 penalty corners, while Harvard had 11 shots and 10 penalty corners.
Harvard's goalie Jessica Milhollin continually frustrated the Quaker attack
"[Milhollin] would sprawl and go down on her side," Penn coach Anne Sage said. "We weren't used to this and had trouble getting the ball over her."
"On penalty corners she'd fall down in front of the goal and we kept hitting the ball right at her instead of lifting it," senior co-captain Kris Vliet added. "The ball couldn't go through her body."
Senior forward Karen Saah was also unhappy with the Quakers' per- formance on penalty corners.
"We had a couple of corner at- tempts that we would have liked to execute better," Saah commented. "I don't think there was a lack of op- portunities. We just weren't able to score on them."
But Penn's scoring troubles started before shots were even launched. The transition game, which had helped the Quakers in their recent five-game win streak, seemed to fizzle.
"We were rushing a lot," Vliet said. "The transition game just want there."
"We needed to be more patient on our transition," Sage said. "We
6 We needed to play together but at times individuals tried to go up quickly and score. Team play would have beaten Harvard.9
Anne Sage Penn field hockey coach
should have played the short ball as opposed to a blast ball. It's just not swiping at the ball. We must control the close ball and take the time to put it in the cage."
Sage added that the Quakers' team play broke down as Penn tried to net a winning goal.
"We needed to play together but at limes individuals tried to go up quickly and score," Sage said "Team play would have beaten Har- vard. You must play as a team to win as a team."
A tie against Harvard still puts Penn in a position to win the Ivy- League title, but a win was expected.
"It was definitely a disappoint- ment," Vliet said. "But we could have easily lost. The effort was there, everyone was playing their hearts out, but it just didn't come together."
Running game key for Barthlow

Statistics. Numbers. Trends. Figures.
So much of the time, we try and pick apart a sporting event, at- tempting to locate rational and logi- cal explanations for why things occurred.
Sometimes, we can find them. Other times, we can't. Sometimes people like them. Sometimes people don't.
Well, after three games for the Penn football team, there are trends, statistics, numbers and fig- ures which are worth noting.
• First and foremost, when the
team runs the football, and runs it well, the Quaker passing game flourishes. This is overwhelmingly supported by the team's statistics.
Take the team's last two games. In its dominating performance against Colgate, the Quakers grinded out 207 yards on the
ground. Concurrently, junior quar- terback Mike Barthlow had his best varsity starting performance, com- pleting 11 of 18 passes for 129 yards and one touchdown.
However, in the Fordham game, which admittedly was a game die-
Football Notebook
tated by defense, Penn's running game stalled. With just 53 rushing yards in the game, Barthlow and the Quaker passing attack suffered. Barthlow finished the day complet- ing only 12 for 29 for 127 yards and three interceptions.
"We're finding ourselves in situa- tions where when we're not running the football, we can't throw it as well, for a variety of reasons," Penn coach Al Bagnoli said. "Bad protec- tion, pattern conversions and pas- ses. We need to shore it up."
Bad pattern conversions have been something of a rarity for senior flanker Chris Brassell. With nini' catches for 138 yards, all three of the Quakers passing touchdowns and a two-point conversion, Brassell has emerged as the team's clutch receiver.
"Chris is starting to play better football," said Bagnoli. "He is con- sistent and is running better patterns."
For Brassell, who only scored one touchdown and had 12 catches for 200 yards last year, the improved production has given new starter Barthlow a pair of sure hands he can rely on.
• Another distinctive statistic is the
success rate that the Quakers have compiled in the proverbial "red zone." Scoring in the red zone (20-yard line and closer) poses a problem for many teams. But through three games, Penn has been extremely effective, scoring
touchdowns six out of 10 times. Contrast this with last year,
where the Quakers had a miserable time in the red zone. Case in point: in the 1991 opener against Dart- mouth. Penn had three opportuni- ties to score a touchdown inside the 20-yard line, and all three times they failed to score a touchdown, gener- ating just three points on those three drives.
"We have a specific philosophy of what we want to do [in the red zone]," Bagnoli said. "Knock on wood, we've gotten good production."
• Penn football is blessed to have
two placekickers who are both com- petent and reliable producers Ju- nior Marc Horowitz kicks the short stuff, and junior Andy Glockner boots the long ones.
"From 35 and in, we use Horowitz, and 35 and out we go with Glock-

Middies dominate Lwt Football, 31-0
ALAIN ROTHSTEIN/DP Stall Photographer Penn's Victor Hsu forces Navy QB Matt Kirby to hurry a throw in Penn's 31-0 loss.
By AARON SHAPIRO Daily Pennsylvanian Sports Writer
One could have sworn it was one of those nightmares when you wake up in the middle of the night and hope that some creature is not hov- ering over you.
However, for the Penn light- weight football team, the nightmare was a Navy squad in its face for all 60 minutes. When the Quakers fi- nally woke up, the scoreboard read 31-0 and there was no hope for a comeback.
The game was marked by Penn's inability to convert anything on of- fense. This had a direct effect on the defense, which was forced to do yeo- man's work Eventually it just broke down.
"The defense was on the field for 68 plays (actually 69)," coach Bill Wagner pointed out. "The physical wear and tear took its toll."
One of the key plays came in the first half after a 52-yard kickoff re- turn by Tom Morrin. Two plays la- ter, Navy had the ball after a Quaker fumble in the backfield. Although the Midshipmen were not able to immediately convert after the tur- nover, the fumble typified the inepti- tude of the offense.
"The defense made good plays on Dougie [senior quarterback Doug Rosenberg]," Morrin said. "It changed the whole complexion of the game."
The offense was only able to com- pile 144 total yards. Morrin amassed ornr
a total of 180 all-purpose yards. Wagner played both of his quarter backs, Rosenberg and freshman James Harris, and gave an explana tion for his strategy.
6 The defense was on the Geld for 68 plays (actually 69). The physical wear and tear took its toll.'
Bill Wagner Lightweight football coach
"We knew before the game started that both quarterbacks would play," Wagner said. "It was the last of the preseason games We made the move after the score was 10-0, but we were unable to score."
Wagner went on to say that he hoped to allow Rosenberg to see what the coaches saw on the side- lines as well as read defenses and recognize different alignments.
The Navy squad was able to domi- nate the game as quarterback Matt Kirby led the offense to a total of 353 yards, 200 of those in the air. The Penn secondary was unable to stop the onslaught from Kirby and speedy running back Vinnie Smith.
Both Naumen Shah and Kris Wappaus were praised by Wagner
